Our Aims

Together, we inspire a lifelong love of learning 

Longnor CE Primary School follows the National Curriculum 2014 and the statutory framework for EYFS.  In order to achieve our curriculum aims, we have identified four key drivers that run throughout our curriculum ensuring our children are equipped with the essential knowledge and skills for their future education. Our Christian values form the roots of our drivers. We use these ‘drivers’ to underpin the learning and experiences we undertake in all areas of school life and to ensure our curriculum offer is enriched.

Develop trust and independence

Building on the EYFS principles of effective learning, Longnor CE Primary School promotes positive learning strategies that children can apply as lifelong learners.

As a whole school approach, we use the three characteristics of effective teaching and learning taken from the statutory EYFS framework to structure independence: playing and exploring, active learning and creating and thinking critically.

Have hope for our world as respectful, global citizens

We will aim to develop the pupils’ knowledge and understanding of the world, providing opportunities for learning within and beyond the classroom. We will foster an attitude of care and respect where children understand how actions and decisions impact upon the world, both within the local and global environment.

Share joyful and memorable learning experiences 

Learning must be fun and enjoyable. With a thirst for knowledge, children at Longnor CE Primary school thrive when given opportunities to shine. We plan for regular retrieval and progression, supporting all to succeed. Memorable experiences through trips, inspiring lessons and resources we adopt, create a positive learning environment.

Love for all

All at Longnor CE Primary School are committed to and promote equality and diversity. Our curriculum is driven with ‘love for all’ at its heart through the visitors welcomed into school, the books we choose and our robust PSHE curriculum. All are welcomed and all are supported with dignity and respect.

Our Key Aims  

Longnor CE Primary School follows the National Curriculum 2014 and the statutory framework for EYFS.  We inspire and foster a love of learning with the following key aims and principles:

  • Our curriculum design is sequential, distinctive and supports all to achieve, through timed and appropriate development of knowledge and skills.
  • Within the school, the environment is stimulating and interesting; all children develop an enthusiasm for learning and feel motivated to learn.
  • All children reach their full potential inspired through rich and challenging learning experiences.
  • We foster independence and support all to become responsible members of the community.
  • We promote high expectations for all children – feedback positively promotes and celebrates progress.
  • Through work and play, we endorse respect towards each other and the world around us.
  • We promote children’s personal development, safety and well-being, through a robust PSHE and RSE curriculum, strong partnerships with parents and the local community.
  • We encourage children to be conscientious and have a positive attitude to their work in school. All children share their work positively and feel a sense of achievement.
